### 3/5 — Video Quality on all apps

*2026-08-05, version 3.6.1*

For the price I wish the video quality was better.  It's noticeably worse than the MLB app on Apple, Android and Roku.

### 2/5 — Inconsistent

*2026-07-30, version 3.6.1*

The app truly decides when and when not it wants to work. Often have to reenter my login info. Cannot currently log into app as I write this review.

### 1/5 — Can’t cast

*2026-07-10, version 3.6.1*

App crashes on my iPad REGULARLY.  And I’m over trying to cast it anywhere.  I’m cancelling my subscription because the app doesn’t work!!!

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE APP

*2026-07-09, version 3.6.1*

Genuinely, as a Cubs fan, if there is literally any other way you can watch the game do it that way. This app isn’t worth 99 cents/month, let alone $20. It constantly crashes and buffers. If you’re behind in the game and go out of the app it forces you to watch it live or start from the beginning when you return to the app. Also it’s very clear they spent 5 mins designing the interface for this app, it’s awful. I’d give it zero stars if I could…

### 1/5 — AWFUL!

*2026-07-08, version 3.6.1*

This app crashes more than a blind man driving after a bottle of whiskey.

### 1/5 — Horrible Customer Service!!!

*2026-07-05, version 3.6.0*

After having Marquee work great for the first few months, suddenly was not able to access anything despite having a subscription. Was told for a week they were working on it, only to still have it not work. When I asked to be refunded they said they couldn’t help despite them not delivering what they promised they would.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2026-07-01, version 3.6.0*

All it does is think and not play . I got 1000 mbps so it should be playing just fine. But it doesn’t. I’m canceling this bllsht right away. These idiots can’t make an app right.

### 2/5 — Quality

*2026-07-01, version 3.6.0*

If I could deduct $1 for every inning I’m let down by this network I’d be able to get a wrigley suite. Shame on the ricketts for choosing $$ over quality.

### 1/5 — Still a dumpster fire.

*2026-06-30, version 3.6.0*

You’d think that after having years to improve on what was undoubtedly one of the worst streaming apps of all time, the Cubs could have sunk a couple hundred bucks into writing some code to improve on this stank product. Nope. Janky as hell. Won’t let me watch games on the road because I “haven’t logged in at home for 30 days”?!? I don’t know what to tell you, I travel for a living and watch on my TV at home and my phone on the road. Don’t get me started about how basic the app is. It shouldn’t be that difficult to fire up a live game when I start the app. One of my favorite moments of every year is when I get to cancel my service after the Cubs inevitably eat it.

### 1/5 — Waste

*2026-06-27, version 3.6.0*

You need to pay for a monthly subscription and they don’t even carry half the games because they are on other networks. What a waste of money.

### 1/5 — Junk. Fix the damn app!

*2026-06-18, version 3.6.0*

Quirky AF. Works one day. Says I am out of market the next. Sometimes it will say I’m out of market, my wife tries on her phone and it works. Same phone, same plan, same app, same b.s. from these junk developers.

### 1/5 — Couldn’t be worse

*2026-06-16, version 3.6.0*

Constant buffering, same ads playing over and over. Very poor user experience can’t believe there hasn’t been any improvements

### 1/5 — Freezes Constantly

*2026-06-16, version 3.6.0*

Cannot watch more than two minutes of a game without the app freezing. Stays frozen for minutes or I have to exit the app and restart. Stick to the radio broadcast!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-06-16, version 3.6.0*

One of the worst apps I’ve ever used. Everyday requires you to login again for one reason or another, sometimes in the middle of the game. The newest is “tv provider doesn’t support this channel”. Well it was supporting it 10 seconds ago? Marquee has been a joke since day 1 and they have made 0 improvements since launch. The app feels like it was developed as 5th grade extra credit project, but they got our money so what do they care 👎 👎

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2026-06-14, version 3.6.0*

If you sneeze the app will ask you if you want to start the game stream over from the beginning or go live. You are not given the ability to cancel. So if you are watching the game 30 minutes behind live and rotate your phone you’ll be prompted to start over or go live. Worst streaming app ever. Don’t get me started on the reliability of their streaming servers.

### 2/5 — TV APP IS BROKEN

*2026-06-13, version 3.6.0*

The app is working on my phone and tablet, however, I was logged out of the app on my tv beginning yesterday, 6/11/2026. I tried to login, and was told my password is invalid. I tried to change password, didnt work. I tried logging in with my tv provider and marquee account. Didnt work. I entered the code they gave me. Didnt work. Its after 4pm on a Friday, so their customer service is closed until Monday. Two stars instead of one, because 2 out of 3 devices work. Home from work just in time to unwind and watch the game on my big screen tv. Doesnt work. I already wasted 30 minutes of my life feeling like I got the runaround, might as well take a few more to share what a dumpster fire the tv app is in terms of functionality, and the ridiculously complex process just to login.

### 1/5 — This app sucks

*2026-06-10, version 3.6.0*

Trying to get subscription and will not even give me reason why. Customer service says it is available 1 hour before game NOT!!!! Have called and just keep getting STUPID A I . Maybe I do not want to be a season ticket holder anymore. This sucks

### 2/5 — no 60 fps???

*2026-06-04, version 3.6.0*

i’m getting 60fps on my phone and tablet, but not my roku tv. i was getting it on my tv before so idk what changed. fix this please

### 1/5 — Worst sports app

*2026-06-04, version 3.6.0*

This is the only app in my phone that buffers every 15-20 seconds. Pay money to watch the cubs game via chrome cast and it won’t work. No other app I stream with had this issue.

### 1/5 — Streaming to tv unbearable to watch

*2026-06-03, version 3.6.0*

Can’t watch the game for longer than 20 seconds without it buffering. Game freezes at every third out. I can’t believe I need to buy an external device to stream on because streaming from my phone is so glitchy.

### 1/5 — This app sucks.

*2026-08-05, version 3.6.1*

The tech support is awful.

### 1/5 — Terrible app, sell ur rights to the cubs please

*2026-08-04, version 3.6.1*

Terrible app. Love the cubbies. 
Hate the marquee sports app

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-08-02, version 3.6.1*

Login with my Direct TV info then it says create an account. I fill out, hit submit and it just spins and goes no where

### 1/5 — Logged me out

*2026-07-31, version 3.6.1*

Really appreciate the app deciding I no longer needed access to my account just because they decided! Thanks for logging me out and not letting me back! Glad I pay so much money to not get access!

### 1/5 — Can’t get past “create a profile”

*2026-07-30, version 3.6.1*

Worked great until all of a sudden it asked me to create a profile which is well known as a bug that’s never been fixed….

Now I cant watch cubs games anymore because im never home and always watch on my Iphone or Ipad. Unbelievable… horrible customer service 

Fix the app….please

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-07-28, version 3.6.1*

You sign in. Tells you now that you have to create a profile. You give them name, email, date of birth, accept terms and click continue. But it doesn’t continue. Arrowood goes around for a half second and nothing. Great network, love the Cubs, garbage app.

### 1/5 — Fix this app

*2026-07-28, version 3.6.1*

This app constantly asks me to create a profile, and then I can’t submit it. How do I even watch games if I can’t get past this screen? Awful

### 1/5 — Announcers

*2026-07-19, version 3.6.1*

Where are the voices of the Cubs? Boog and JD!!
These tryouts you are doing suck. Dumpster, Floyd, Sweeney, just blab. Alex Cohen is pretty solid.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-07-18, version 3.6.1*

WTF

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-07-13, version 3.6.1*

Never remembers password does not work across devices does not update, almost never works once the game is underway unless you force close and restart multiple times, terrible product, terrible fan support

### 5/5 — Unacceptably Terrible

*2026-04-05, version 3.6.0*

During the course of a game I need to close and restart the app multiple times due to crashing. It’s not my internet. The app sucks. If my phone switches to low power mode while I’m watching it crashes or pauses. Sometime I’ll try and open it and it just won’t open, and freeze on loading. Often when it transitions from pre-game to the broadcast it will freeze. This product is terrible and is as predatory as the terrible quality, over-priced food at Wrigley. Just a classic situation. We’re a captive audience so they can milk us and treat us like an inconvenient barrier to our money. If you’re smart enough, just illegally stream the games.

### 5/5 — Chicago sports

*2025-10-07, version 3.4.0*

Great way to watch cubs games and even post game analysis and highlights provided

### 5/5 — Great refresh

*2025-09-24, version 3.4.0*

Love the updated look and feel. Much easier to navigate and discover new content. Go Cubs!

### 5/5 — Mr.Johns

*2025-09-19, version 3.4.0*

Go cubs!

### 5/5 — boo

*2025-08-24, version 3.3.1*

cubs

### 5/5 — Good app

*2025-08-23, version 3.3.1*

Like watching the cubs

### 5/5 — Travel

*2025-08-23, version 3.3.1*

Great to have access to my team while I’m on the road!

### 5/5 — What are yall saying

*2025-06-11, version 3.2.0*

This app is perfect and I can watch my favorite sports team. It hasn’t lagged yet, it hasn’t glitched yet. It’s overall a good app.

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2025-05-25, version 3.2.0*

We’ve had this app for less than a week but we’ve had nothing but a fantastic viewing experience. There’s been no freezing, no clocking, connects through our Apple TV perfectly.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-04-25, version 3.2.0*

I’m not sure what any of these reviews are talking about. It does its job, I have never had an issue, I get inside coverage on teams like cubs and the bears and updates me on anything important happening with the sports teams it covers on the app. I think this app is fine.
